Vasco DA Gama vs Palmeiras Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.03 expected goals for Vasco DA Gama and 2.00 for Palmeiras, a combined total of 3.03. That distribution gives Palmeiras the largest share of the 1X2 market at 60%, with the draw at 21%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 58% for over 2.5 goals and 55% for both teams to score, with 1–1 the single most likely scoreline at 10%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 60% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Palmeiras win, at 60.0%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–1.

It puts both teams scoring at 55% and over 2.5 goals at 58%.

A 60% selection is expected to miss in the remaining share of matches, and football regularly produces red cards, injuries and tactical changes the data cannot see. Treat this as a probability, not a forecast of the result.
